Megan Thee Stallion is truly one of the it-iest It Girls of our generation and we all have no choice but to collectively stan. I do not trust you if there are not at least three songs of hers that you can recite word for word. Oh, and backward.

Megan’s career has been wildly successful ever since her 2018 EP Tina Snow dropped, and it’s truly only been up from there. Pretty sure if Meg earned $1 for every time someone did the “Savage” TikTok dance in 2020, she’d be a billionaire—but honestly, just give it time because her current net worth is im-pres-sive. Especially for those of us whose personal net worth is, like, one chicken nugget.

Between multiple hits, a load of major partnerships, merch sales, and a buttload of consistent streams, Megan is a hot girl and a very, very rich girl. Let’s dig into her incredibly deep bag, shall we?

Her music still makes the money—mostly thanks to streams

Naturally, most of Meg’s direct deposits are a result of her well-loved music. In 2019, Megan’s hit “Hot Girl Summer” became pretty much everybody’s personal anthem and solidified her as a household name. Then in 2020, she had a helluva year. Not only did she bless us all during the quarantine lockdown with “Savage (Remix)” featuring Beyoncé and then star on Cardi B’s “WAP,” which secured the coveted number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, but her track “Body” also absolutely dominated and Time named her one of its most influential people.

To date, Megan has 22.7 million monthly Spotify listeners. On top of that, “WAP” has garnered more than 1 billion streams and “Savage” has tallied nearly 365 million streams. And yeah, obviously, all those streams have lead to a lot of cash. Cardi and Megan announced that they were partnering with Twitter and Cash App to give away $1 million. So…if they had $1 million to spare, let’s go ahead and assume there was a lot more where that came from.

She’s back to performing live

Like most artists, Megan’s touring schedule was drastically impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown periods. But now that many restrictions have significantly loosened, she is back on the stage. From performing at Coachella for the very first time in April 2022 to literally being on a European tour around that time, Megan is undoubtedly making so much money from being onstage, which is historically where artists made the bulk of their income.

She has a TON of major brand partnerships

Our hot girl coach is not only cashing music checks, y’all, but also those from top-tier brands. Sit back for this rather long list of receipts. Megan has deals with Popeye’s, Coach, Nike, Revlon, Calvin Klein, Cheetos—who she partnered with for a freaking Super! Bowl!! Commercial!!!, naturally meaning more $$$$), and Fashion Nova. Yes, multiple streams of income!

Megan has her own merch line that’s pretty damn good

In addition to her partnerships, Megan also has her own branding with her exclusive merch. You can get something for yourself AND your dog because all Hot Girls need a Hot Dog. It’s basic math.

She’s also stepping into TV and film

You! Cannot! Contain! Her! Back in December 2021, Megan inked a pretty impressive deal with Netflix where she will both create and produce brand-new content. The $$$$ details of the deal aren’t widely available, but we know Netflix is never hurting for cash, so it’s safe to assume Meg got a nice lil lump of coins. But it doesn’t stop there because our girl will be on both sides of the camera. Deadline reported that Megan will also star in A24’s first-ever movie musical, F*cking Identical Twins.

Before this, Megan also had her own Snapchat series called Off the Leash, and if you want to see her and her famous friends—and their furbabies—literally get into pure shenanigans while hanging out on an exclusive ranch/farm/estate, then I cannot recommend it enough.

Her record label allegedly screwed her over

Megan’s net worth is hefty (more on that below), but she might have even more if it weren’t for her record label 1501 Certified Entertainment, which she sued in March 2020. Megan claims her contract allowed 1501 to “literally do nothing while at the same time taking for themselves the vast majority of [her] income from all sources.”

Rolling Stone checked out Megan’s original 1501 contract (signed February 4, 2018), and apparently she was given a signing bonus of just $10,000 (sounds like a lot, but it’s really not for this industry!) “as an advance toward future earnings,” and the royalties split was 60-40—with them taking the majority.

Rolling Stone also reported that under the terms of the contract, 1501 Entertainment got 30 percent of “almost all of Megan’s sources of income” and had the exclusive rights to her name/likeness and wanted 30 percent of her $$ for any other endeavors—like TV, film, etc. 1501 Entertainment CEO Carl Crawford accused Megan and her team of using a “strong-arm tactic” so that he would renegotiate her contract, telling Billboard, “You think Jay-Z would have gave her part of her masters on her first deal with Roc Nation? F*ck no. Then she’s getting $100,000 a show and she don’t want to pay up.”

Luckily, Meg WON THE LAWSUIT, which is also a win for the hot girls everywhere!

So, what’s her net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, that’d be $14 million—which is not only a lot of money, it’s also $6 million more than when we last reported on her back in June 2022!!!! Truly loving all of this for Meg, but we know more commas and zeros will be added to that number super soon.
